Hmmm.....that's a shame.

I wonder if the OE Bilsteins on the 40th Anniversary are snap-rings? I may have to call Mazdaspeed and find out.

 

FM,

I found a pic of the OE Bilsteins for the 40th Anniversary car. Do these look like they'll be crimp tops like the Solstice OE Bilsteins??

Is there a chance they'll be snap-ring tops??

 

call Koni instead, they can install a new wet kit in them

 

I actually have the OTS Koni Sports installed but I always like exploring options (whether they're fast or not )

If the 40th Ann shocks are snap-rings Shaikh would be able to revalve them and possibly make them adjustable.

 

Stay tuned on the Bilstein HD front; something interesting might be coming along for those that need a streetable suspension setup. Won't help the B Stock guys and probably won't be that interesting to the STU people though...

 

we've got a set of these 40th ones sitting around. the car pretty much came off the dealership we broke the engine in, then replaced it with the koni's....

what do you want us to check for/take pictures of?

 

Looking closer at the pic I think I've figured it out. They appear to be crimp-tops which sucks. You could confirm this by knocking off the steel dust cap and taking a pic of the top of the shock body.

If it looks like this, it'll be a rear pain to revalve.
